Hummus-like Garlic Beet Spread

This garlic beet spread has been giving me life over the past week.

My tastebuds recently had the pleasure of indulging in these Swiss Chard Fritters. While I had initially planned to eating them by themselves, I realized that I actually had ingredients on hand to make a variation of the Garlicky Beet Spread that the NYTCooking recommends as an accompaniment. I was really pleased with how it turned out and have been eating it on everything this week. Thought I’d share! Do be warned that this spread is pretty garlicky. You may not want to include this one on your list of date-night recipes. 😉 If you’re not into it, feel free to adjust accordingly.

I highly recommend trying the Chard Fritters if you can. This spread also pairs well with crackers and pita – pretty much anything that you’d use to scoop hummus. You can also dap a huge dollop of it on your salad place to add in some flavor. If you make this garlic beet spread, I’d love to hear how you’re using it. Comment below!
